Baan Paa Jazz

Highly recommended

What we say:

If you're in the Rangnam area this back to basics restaurant should be at the very top of your must-try list.

Covered with a corrugated tin roof, the walls plastered with newspapers articles, prizes awarded to children, and pictures of the King, the woman behind this restaurant stands behind two gas burners with her hair unbelievably coiffed considering the heat.

Make up applied like an opera star, she stirs and fries beneath the smoke hood, sending out incredible versions of central Thai classics. Her red curry with boar is amazing, but starting the meal with it ensures you won't taste anything else the rest of the evening.

Dishes from 65 - 245 baht. Highly recommended and great value for money.
